If any installer of a private sewage system backfills any portion
of the system and/or covers the same with earth, cinders, gravel,
shale or any other material which will prevent the same from being
readily viewed to determine if the system meets all requirements of
the chapter before receipt of written approval by the Health Department,
the Health Department may give 15 days' notice in writing to such
installer so violating the provision of the chapter, to uncover such
backfilled or covered portions of the system.
If, at the end of such 15 days, the installer shall not have
uncovered the private sewage disposal system, the permit is automatically
invalidated and penalty action may be taken. The authorized representative
may elect to have the system uncovered at the expense of the homeowner.
Failure of the homeowner to pay such costs within 30 days shall result
in execution of a lien against the property.
